As day five comes to an end

It’s a little after 1.00 am in Jerusalem, the end of a long, violent day. The Israeli army is in the process of warning residents of Gaza to leave certain neighborhoods where it is planning to attack. Hamas is maintaining its rocket fire into Israel, and also claiming responsibility for three rockets fired into northern Israel from Lebanon just before 11 pm on Saturday. We’ll close this liveblog now, and our colleague Haviv Rettig Gur will be taking up the strain in a few moments with a new liveblog. Good night.
